Using the image above as the facial reference. Maintain exact facial structure, proportions, features, and expression with consistent identity. With small written signature ${signature:Blaire} on the bottom right part. Ultra-realistic hyper-detailed cinematic horror beauty portrait, 1:1 square aspect ratio, close-up chest-up composition, designed as a premium Gen Z Halloween profile picture.

IDENTITY & SUBJECT:
Create a fictional adult woman, approximately 25 years old, with natural human facial proportions and distinctive, expressive eyes. Her appearance embodies an ancient Egyptian mummy awakened after thousands of years. If a reference face is provided, preserve the adult subject's recognizable facial identity, facial structure, eye shape, nose, lips, and natural proportions. Apply all horror styling as makeup, prosthetics, and costume effects without changing her underlying identity.

POSE & BODY GEOMETRY:
Position her torso at a three-quarter angle toward the left while her face turns back toward the camera. Her right shoulder sits slightly closer to the lens, creating natural foreground perspective. One bandage-wrapped hand rises beside her cheek, with the fingertips closer to the camera than her face. Her other shoulder remains slightly farther away. Keep her neck naturally aligned, shoulders relaxed but uneven, and elbows anatomically believable. Her head is slightly lowered while her eyes look upward directly into the lens.

FACIAL EXPRESSION:
A haunting, emotionless stare with subtly narrowed eyelids, slightly parted lips, and a faint tension between the eyebrows. Her expression suggests an ancient being silently recognizing its next visitor. Maintain realistic eye moisture, natural catchlights, visible eyelashes, and believable facial muscle tension.

HALLOWEEN MAKEUP & PROSTHETICS:
Apply pale sand-beige and muted olive-gray complexion makeup, with realistic desaturated undertones. Add professionally applied aged-skin prosthetics around the temples, cheekbones, and forehead, including fine cracks, peeling edges, subtle creases, and weathered textures. Create convincing darkened eye sockets using layered taupe, charcoal, and dusty brown pigments. Add tiny areas of simulated dry, cracked skin, realistic dust particles, and uneven pigment around the nose. Wrap portions of her forehead, jawline, neck, and shoulders with distressed ivory and beige mummy bandages. Individual fibers, frayed threads, overlapping layers, and realistic fabric shadows must be visible. All injury-like details are theatrical effects only.

HAIR & HEAD ACCESSORIES:
Dark chocolate-brown hair, partially concealed beneath aged linen wraps. Create messy, textured strands escaping around the temples, ears, and nape. Add a small antique-gold Egyptian-inspired forehead ornament, weathered metallic beads, and tiny sand-colored decorative chains integrated into the bandages. Keep accessories lightweight and realistic.

OUTFIT & BODY ACCESSORIES:
A distressed ancient linen wrap costume covering the shoulders and upper chest, with layered bandages crossing diagonally over the collarbone. Add aged gold collar jewelry, tiny scarab-inspired decorative pendants, and a few antique metallic details. Every material should show realistic wear, stitching, folds, and weight.

NAIL ART:
Long almond-shaped nails in dusty bone beige with distressed antique-gold edges, tiny crackle patterns, and matte-to-satin finishes. Maintain realistic nail beds, natural cuticles, and five anatomically correct fingers per visible hand.

STUDIO & BACKGROUND:
A dark charcoal-black horror photography studio with subtle atmospheric haze. Place a narrow turquoise neon light behind her on camera-left and a warm amber-gold rim light behind her opposite shoulder. The background should remain dark, clean, and uncluttered, with a faint ancient-temple-inspired shadow pattern barely visible in the distance.

LIGHTING & CAMERA:
Professional studio key light through a large diffused softbox positioned 45 degrees camera-right. Add subtle frontal fill to preserve facial detail, cyan edge lighting along the bandages, and warm amber backlighting to separate her silhouette from the background. Canon EOS R5, RF 85mm portrait lens, ISO 100, 1/200 sec, f/2.8. Sharp focus on the eyes, realistic optical depth of field, controlled highlights, accurate shadows, high-resolution photographic detail.

ANTI-AI REALISM:
Preserve natural facial asymmetry, tiny skin pores, subtle under-eye texture, realistic bandage compression, imperfect stray hairs, believable hand anatomy, physically accurate light falloff, and authentic fabric fibers. The prosthetics must blend naturally into the skin. No plastic skin, no artificial beauty-filter appearance, no excessive sharpening. Premium horror editorial photography, photorealistic 8K-style detail.

NEGATIVE PROMPT:
cartoon, anime, illustration, 3D render, video game graphics, artificial doll face, waxy skin, plastic texture, excessive smoothing, symmetrical face, duplicated facial features, cross-eyed gaze, deformed hands, extra fingers, missing fingers, fused fingers, broken wrists, twisted shoulders, floating bandages, rubber-looking fabric, flat lighting, overexposed face, completely black facial details, blurry eyes, oversaturated colors, excessive gore, exposed organs, text, watermark, logo, collage, multiple subjects, landscape composition, full-body shot, rectangular aspect ratio.

FINAL OUTPUT:
One fictional adult female mummy portrait, chest-up close-up, square 1:1 crop, compelling eye contact, professionally lit dark horror studio, sophisticated Halloween makeup artistry, believable practical prosthetics, and premium profile-picture quality.
